Is Obama Lying About Big Brother?
Zero Hedge ^ | 06/07/2013 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 06/08/2013 1:53:09 PM PDT by vietvet67

As of this moment, Obama is making the case that the US government is not eavesdropping on phone calls. Specifically, he said "nobody is listening to your phone calls - they are just looking at phone numbers and duration of calls" and concluded that the NSA was only engaged in "modest encroachments." It was unclear if that clarification was meant to put to rest fears that Big Brother has made personal privacy a thing of the past. He further went on to add that the telephone surveillance program is fully vetted by Congress and supervised by the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA). In other words: Obama is making the case that the NSA's Big Brother supervision is perfectly legal and not only that, there are checks and balances and neither the telephonic snooping nor the internet supervision is anything to be concerned about. There is one problem: Obama is lying.

How loud is your megaphone? Mine isn’t very loud unfortunately. I don’t “do” FB or stuff like that and twitter is not up my alley. I’ve bought a few sets of Enemies Foreign and Domestic - gave one set to my County SHeriff. One set is loaned out right now. I write letters to the editor when they’ll accept them and generally don’t hold back.

WHat else can a tiny citizen do? I have no $ and contacting Congressmen - I tried, and have 2 Dem Senators.

I email articles out to people. But most of the people I email are already wised up and a few are completely non-political and refuse to change.

You make a really good case. The word demonic crosses my mind often when considering all the aspects/deeds perpetrated by this regime.

It's an endless array of destruction of everything we hold to be true. Especially, the Christian religion which is under full frontal attack,IMHO.

You may not realize it but you,and many others here, are in a set of a very small circle of intelligent posters that have loads of wisdom and knowledge. And, most important of all,we forcibly verify our claims or we all get our asses kicked by one another.

ON this site if you make a comment you better be able to back it up. On FR we uncover the real truth surrounding this regime and the politics of the situation. Posters like you and others make undoubtedly make far more waves that you or I can ever imagine!

Always remember that talk radio needs input. Its no secret that lots of it comes from the blogosphere. Guess which sites are the most reliable? We are on one.

Personally,I stay away from politics for the most part on facebook. Other than that though I am all over it.I have a business and am not shy about bringing the topic of politics up almost at will. Much of the time people already have opinions similar to mine they just don't have the spectacular background that this site gives us. People like you and many others have created a website of knowledge here that is unparalleled!This is "the" source for conservative knowledge on the web. I am convinced. Also I visit may of the others and there remains nothing like this place especially with posters like you making contributions on along term basis with backgrounds unparalleled anywhere else.

So yes. You make a hell of a difference, IMHO.

Many here deserve the kind words, not really me, though. But I agree that if everyone who knows what the general “we” on FR know, does whatever they can do to spread not just the information but the courage and principles that the real foundation our Constitutioanl Republic, the benefit is great. I also iniate converstaions here and there when out and about, and 9 times out of 10, people are happy to hear someone speaking up about “controversial” topics - I think a lot more people are conservative or open to these principles than a lot of us realize.

I’ve been to 3 public meetings with our County Sheriff and I’m not afraid to ask questions - in fact I almost made a nuisance of myself at the last one. People are are getting very angry at the abuses of not just the fedgov but our rotten commie stateguv and even our county commisioners are a little gang of small times crooks. People just need to get riled up enough, informed, and we’re on our way out of this mess.

Although I do think ond of my retired taglines applies:

We’ll have to go through hell to get out of hell.

Zero may be a puppet, but he occupies the highest office on the face of the earth.

"Leader of the 'free' World". Is there any human position of power the devil would covet more? It's the ultimate power/ego trip. He needed the most pathetic corrupt doofus in there who was desperate for attention and validation. No wonder the White House has become Blight House.

Doesn't get any better than that! I am a member of our area Republican club, we have three here in the Keys and I am also on the Executive Committee for the Keys which meets once a month.

We have conservative leaders here and have conservative takes on many issues. Although nothing is 100%. We have a club member who just ran for statewide office and won and its easy to see her climb the latter over the upcoming years.

Many of our members hold offices throughout the county.From Mayor on down. My time here on FR has given me a huge edge on national issues and I am sometimes a "go to guy" on all things national/international although I admit to being woefully inept on local issues. Kinda backwards but it works for me.

As Freepers we will easily speak out since issues that seem cloudy to others yet are very black and white for us. We have studied them, researched them and actually know what we are talking bout vs. others who merely have opinions. Big difference.It will show as well.

If you add up everything,the sum of ozero, and then think of him in various terms its not that hard to make a case. Everything he does is clouded in secrecy and even his penchant for killing by the use of the drone fits your billing.
